nj meadowlands Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Now that the smoke has settled a little, I suppose I'd rank our top needs as: 1) CB, 2) G, 3) WR/TE, 4) QB, 5) RB So what would your realistic preferences be? CB 1. Antonio Cromartie 2. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie 3. Captain Munnerlyn G 1. Travelle Wharton 2. Willie Colon WR/TE 1. James Jones 2. Emmanuel Sanders 3. Jermichael Finley 4. Brandon Pettigrew QB 1. Mike Vick 2. Matt Schaub 3. Sanchez? RB 1. MJD 2. Nothing else I guess? Draft is full of pass catching backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19andOhWait Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 was just about to post something similar. as we head into day 3 I am looking at as new targets/wish-list: Emmanuel Sanders/James Jones, Pettigrew/Ed Dickson, Chris Clemons, DRC, Thurdmond, Zach Strief?, Colon/Waters?, Charles Woodson??, J Peppers??, Peanut Tillman?? not sure why all this MJD love. guy was awful last year. maybe was banged up but he's got a lottt of wear on his tires.

JET80TV Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 either cromartie, sanders, peppers on the cheap and colon for depth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JET80TV Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 maybe MJD on the cheap as well, i dont know if he can catch out of the backfield but that would be a sticking point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Cro should come back and/or DRC. Sanders or Jones would be excellent pickups. (I'm leaning towards Sanders at this time for some reason) and I would LOVE to see Zach Strief signed and move this Beno guy inside to RG. That would make me very happy going into the draft.

JustInFudge Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'd like to see a veteran corner signed, another solid WR option, maybe an OLB (though I'd be fine with bringing Pace back), a veteran safety would be cool (though I'd be fine with Reed coming back), a Guard (though I'd be fine with Colon coming back). lol Basically, I want the Jets to have flexibility in the draft.

Latinlawyer Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 James Jones is the one I'd be most interested in on the OFF side, on D we need a CB in the worst way...DRC or Munnerlyn although Munnerlyn is more of a slot CB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Basically, I want the Jets to have flexibility in the draft. Thats what I'm looking for in signings moving forward. Yep. Decker was our "big signing". One of the three CB's and/or James Jones would count as another. The rest will be non-sexy pickups to fill out the roster pre-draft.

LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I like Joesph, the G from the Bucs. Isn't Chris Johnson said to be cut? But the way Idzik operates contract wise we maybe won't be able to please him. We might as well try to sign Worilds to an offer sheet. I would look at Britt if we can't reach to terms with Jones. Not sure if Nicks would play for us as Geno is far from Rivers, Luck, Newton and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he'll be an Oakland Raider quite soon. will be interesting to see what he does. doubt he wants to go to OAK only to have them draft manziel. the good news that he knows who he will be competing with if he comes to the jets--we aren't taking a first year starter at 18 and we aren't trading up high enough to get one of those guys. vick has to feel pretty good about his chances to beat geno in camp.

From age 26-28, he had barely crossed 300 total carries. Thats the prime age for RBs. MJD was playing hurt last year and was part of an offense that was worse than ours for the most part. All they had was MJD and teams knew that. Load the box and force the opponents to throw. MJD still has about 2 solid years of football left. I hope we can get him, because a young QB needs to check down to his RBs/TEs too often. Unless u feel Cumberland will be the next Jason Witten, MJD is a very logical option. He will also give this offense the spark that Leon Washington used to give back a few years. We haven't had such an RB in a while that could break away on any given play. The only difference is, MJD is far more consistent at providing such spark than Leon was. Whats to lose? 2 years, 3-4mil per and the deal is done for an RB that can have 50+ catches and combine for over 1500 yards with Ivory alone. We'll have two excellent runners in MJD and Ivory and if/when any of those go down, you still have Bilal Powell to lean on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4jets Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Didn't Nicks say he wasn't interested in a one year deal? No one's giving him a multi year deal unless its like 3 mil per. I'd throw in 2 years $6mil deal or 3 years $9 mil ($3 mil signing bonus, yr1 salary: $1m, yr2: $2m, yr3: $3m), and the ability to cut him in year 3. Its effectively a 2 yr deal worth $6mil but the Jets get the opportunity to use his injury prone services for yr 3 if needed. He's not getting anywhere near Decker money.

nj meadowlands Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 OG Travelle Wharton 4yr/16M...6G --- make this 3 years, but he probably gets a little more annual WR Sidney Rice 1yr/3.5M --- sounds like a good deal, but i'd like to kick tires on Jones and Sanders first TE Brandon Pettigrew 4yr/18M --- also make this 3 years... money sounds fine RB Felix Jones 1yr/vet min --- would you rather this clown than Goodson? pass OLB LaMarr Woodley 4yr/28M --- sounds like too big a contract, but I like the player. I think he signs elsewhere today though. CB Antonio Cromartie 2yr/12M ---- bingo. CB Carlos Rogers 1yr/1.5M ---- would LOVE this one, but i think he gets more. S Charles Woodson 1yr/3M --- pass.

j4jets Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 NFL Network's Mike Silver names the Giants, Jets, Texans, Raiders, and Lions as possible landing spots for free agent Brandon Pettigrew. Early-offseason chatter had the Lions potentially franchise tagging Pettigrew, the idea of which now looks foolish. He's been connected to a bevy of teams but almost certainly not getting the financial offers he's seeking. Pettigrew is 29 years old with shaky hands and no dynamic elements to his receiving game. This is exactly what the Jets need. Some "shaky hands" in the parking lot of Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HessStation Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Yeah, agree, Woodley's contract is a too much. More like a $4-5 per for 3 years probably makes more sense....but looking at a team like the Raiders, will probably overpay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
